As for the payment, I would need you to get back in touch with the last asking price as I will be paying with a Cashier Cheque.

Lastly, please forward to me your full company''s (or house address, telephone and fax) details as I will subsequently prefer reaching you through these facilities.

Yours interestingly,

If the Cashier's Cheque is sth. like a bank draft it needs clearing and there are fake ones, so even if in theory it's 'as good as money' you'd have to wait for it to clear and still fraudulent ones can be recalled later... it looks dodgy.

Re: does this sound like a scam??

this is 100% a scam...i recieved the same message about stuff i had posted for sale in a local forum. i googled his e-mail address that he provided me and i'm here now.

the site he PM'd me on said he was a nigerian scammer in his signature LOL. no previous posts or nothing. and his lingo is off.
